One Month B-Day / 1K miles!
« on: September 20, 2010, 03:14:01 AM »
Well today is the one month birth day of the "Green Dragon" and we just ticked over 1,000 miles together.  Not too bad, especially since I was out of the country for 10 of those days.  ;D

So far i couldn't be happier with this bike.  She already got her birthday present of the LED turn signals and the fender delete so no more presents till next birthday.  I'm thinking it will probably be some very "sticky skins".  Like the Michelin Pilot Sport SCs.  Anyone know if 150s will fit on the back of a Super 8 150?

Anyway just celebrating and saying thanks for this great fan site ;D

No, I mean riding those miles, minus the ten days, more riding time when you were able. :)

Around about every 5 months, when the roster comes around to a particular cycle I will get 5 days off in a row, without using anual leave. :) But, the I do 5 dayshifts and 7 nightshifts. :( Swings 'n roundabouts.

Yup, i have trouble taking big clumps of time off too.  But round Christmas time before i loose my annual vacation i finally take a couple of weeks off.  Now with my scooter riding i'm trying to use up more of my time during the good riding season. 

And looks like tomorrow is going to be just one of those days.  WoHooooo!  Plan to roll out round 8 am and see where the scoot leads me.  Should be fun!
